Best Titans Draft Picks, No. 9: TE Bo Scaife

by Jimmy on Apr 19, 2011 4:25 PM CDT

Over the next few weeks heading up to the draft we will be highlighting the biggest busts and greatest picks in the history of the Titans. I have decided to only look at the picks the franchise has made since the move to Tennessee instead of trying to look back at the entire history of the franchise.

Now we will countdown the top 10 best picks in franchise history.

Bo Scaife comes in at #9. I think everyone here knows that I am far from Scaife's biggest fan, but he ended up being a great value pick for the franchise after being the 179th player selected in the 2005 NFL Draft. I don't know how many other sixth round picks have ended up getting the franchise tag, but I dare say it is a short list.

Top 10 Busts:

#10 Shad Meier
#9 Tyrone Calico
#8 Ben Troupe
#7 Courtney Roby
#6 Paul Williams
#5 Kevin Dyson
#4 Chris Henry
#3 Andre Woolfolk
#2 Adam Jones
#1 Vince Young

Top 10 Successes:

#10 Marc Mariani

That's a franchise TE right there.

So quick question on this series...

It’s not the “best draft picks of the Titans” but rather, “The best draft picks of the Titans for where they were drafted”?

agreed though…Bo was a pretty solid TE for a while for us.

Where they were drafted is taken into consideration when the list is made.

So, yes.

It’s not necessarily just a best players list.

He was serviceable, if nothing special.

For getting him in the sixth round, I can understand him being on here. I hate to bring this up after the discussion on the daily links page, but how much was he helped by having his college QB on the team?

Good evening. I'm Ron Burgundy, and here's what's happening in your world tonight.

I can't decide who to blame more for our fumblitis woes

Scaife, Crumpler, or LenWhale….but yea, not a bad pick…for the 6th round!

Let's make it two.

"Do the Titans have a miracle left in them in what has been a magical season to this point? If they do, they need it now. Christie kicks it high and short. Gonna be fielded by Lorenzo Neal at the 25; he dishes it back to Wycheck; he throws it across the field to Dyson. 30, 40, 50, 40, 30, 20, 10, 5, endzone...touchdown, Titans! There are no flags on the field! It's a miracle! Tennessee has pulled a miracle! A miracle for the Titans!"
